I never had to install linux on one personally. Give me two more weeks and I will tell you how it goes with SGI Octane's though. I scavenged two at work for mini-servers for the group I am with. Before they went out the door to the dump. One of which is going to requires some extensive perl work to incorperate NetDisco project. Default Debian Sarge build breaks the root discovery with CDP SNMP and creation of network topology maps. The other box is for nagios with selinux kernel base and policies because of the dual roll with the IT-Security group for network security scans, and with Network-Ops for monitoring network devices and servers. I will let you know how the build goes when I get it completed. BTW, the CVS archive on the web site seems to be holding stable at work on a P3 500 I setup on 2.6.7 last thurs. Still going and still screaming, throughput and performance much better than the 2.6.7-686 build from the binary tree.
